In your shadow, shadow in the light of dawn
You said you'd call but now you're gone
I've danced alone through sleepless nights
Held on to love with all my mind
The promises you used to say
They haunt me every single day

You said forever
And I believed and I believed
Now I'm the only one who grieves

I gave you time I gave you space
But all I found was your empty embrace
If love was real then tell me why
You left me here with no goodbye
I've been waiting past forever
Through the dark, through every endeavor
Hoping you would turn around
But you're nowhere to be found
Still, I'm holding on past ever
Stopped breathing breath past forever
All waiting's done turned me lead

I played a song and closed my eyes
And pictured us beneath the skies
We had a fire, we had a spark
Now I'm just dancing in the dark
I keep your voice inside my heart
But you and I are worlds apart

You said forever
And I believed and I believed
Now I'm the only one who grieves

I gave you time I gave you space
But all I found was your empty embrace
If love was real then tell me why
You left me here with no goodbye
I've been waiting past forever
Through the dark, through every endeavor
Hoping you would turn around
But you're nowhere to be found
Still, I'm holding on past ever
Stopped breathing breath past forever
All waiting's done turned me lead

I can't rewind I can't erase
The touch I lost, the warm embrace
But even if you never come
I'll keep on standing through it all

I've been waiting past forever
Through the dark, through every endeavor
Tears have fallen like the stars
Tried to heal the space you left this side
Still, I'm holding on past ever
Stopped breathing breath past forever
All waiting's done turned me lead
